support pointer files
Backend.lookupFile is changed to always fall back to catKey when operating on a file that's not a symlink. catKey is changed to understand pointer files, as well as annex symlinks. Before, catKey needed a file mode witness, to be sure it was looking at a symlink. That was complicated stuff. Now, it doesn't actually care if a file in git is a symlink or not; in either case asking git for the content of the file will get the pointer to the key. This does mean that git-annex will treat a link foo -> WORM--bar as a git-annex file, and also treats a regular file containing annex/objects/WORM--bar as a git-annex file. Calling catKey could make git-annex commands need to do more work than before. This would especially be the case if a repo contained many regular files, and only a few annexed files, as now git-annex will need to ask git about the contents of the regular files.
